Kinetic and simulation studies of the esterification of acrylic acid with 2- ethyl hexanol in a batch and packed bed reactor

Wastewater containing acrylic acid (AA) imposes detrimental effect to the environment due to its high value of chemical oxygen demand. Recovery of AA from its dilute aqueous solution for heterogeneously catalysed esterification in a reactive distillation column (RDC) could be a promising approach. T...
